I'm trying to us a D-Link DFE-530TX+ and run into the same problem (sort of...)
OpenSolaris 08.11 sees the NIC as...

I followed the steps in the previous posts and got pretty far...

Any ideas?
Also, there is an integrated NIC that I disabled via the BIOS (shouldn't be
assigned an IRQ), but OpenSolaris still sees it and it shows up in the Device
Driver Utility (with a third party driver missing error msg)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
